WHAT'S INCLUDED IN STAGE 1?

The BMW K1600 got a refresh for 2022. Boasting a new ECU and wideband sensors, along with the same great engine. But with a new bike comes new problems, and the K1600 is no exception. Based on customer complaints and our own, in-house observations/testing, we have modified the following to make the BMW K1600 to make it as it should have been from the factory.

• Top speed limiter removed (BT Moto exclusive)
• More power over part and full-throttle curve
• Complete throttle derestriction
• Fueling adjustments at part and full load for maximum performance
• FTCL (full-time closed loop) wideband based fueling integrated into tuning (BT Moto exclusive)
• Ignition advance
• Torque tables
• Throttle control and response enhanced
  
• Cooler engine temps
• Startup fix (no more high idle or misfire/stalling)
• More exciting riding experience with mode functionality retained
• 60-130MPH times reduced from 10.4 seconds to 10.2 seconds, verified on GPS ( SEE HERE )
  

HOW DO WE ACCOMPLISH THIS WITH STAGE 1?

• Extensive research and development has allowed us to make more power with this platform.  Not only are we making more power but we are also revising ECU tables to make the bike safer and more reliable for those long trips where having issues isn't an option.
• We left no stone unturned in our Stage 1 development and spent hours, days, and months to perfect the product with endless R&D.
• The air/fuel ratio has been carefully measured in testing with the other changes we've made optimizes your K1600 for peak performance and reliability. We utilize the factory equipped widebands to constantly monitor and change fueling as you ride. Though this isn't available stock, we can enable this kind of control in the ECU. We call it Full-Time Closed Loop. Any elevation, temp or atmospheric condition will be accounted for. Perfect for those long trips through the mountains and valleys. The fueling will always stay perfect.
• The K1600 has active ignition map. The point to this is to ensure your bike runs at peak performance and reliability, even when bad fuel is present. Bad fuel would be defined as a fuel that has lower than advertised octane, old fuel that's been sitting in the bike that has now going bad, or a forgetful user that just pumped incorrect octane fuel at the gas station. With our extensive R&D process we've been able to optimize the ignition map to not only add more power to your K1600, but also make sure that if bad fuel is present, the motorcycle will still maintain its reliability.
• With the changes in fueling and ignition, there is a noticeable difference in keeping the bike cooler and more consistent with power.
• Torque limit tables in dynamic mode have all been raised to give you maximum performance.
• Expect large increases in low-end and mid-range throttle response through 100% direct throttle opening in different riding mode.
  

COMPLAINTS

The biggest complaints from owners revolved around the pitiful throttle response (especially off the line) and of course the terribly restrictive top speed limiter (GA especially which we found to be around 105MPH). First we baselined the motorcycle in 100% stock ECU form. In stock configuration we found all the talk of poor throttle was spot on. We also found the bike hit the speed limiter in the top of 3rd gear, with 3 more gears to go — frustrating to say the least, especially on a bike of this nature. The power flattened out and the motor was very rich and under-timed. With or without custom mapping, we all know the BMW K1600 is a wonderful bike that's amazing for touring! We also know it isn’t perfect. Issues that we’ve verified ourselves and what customers have reported include the following:

• Bad throttle response
• Top speed limiter at 105 MPH (GA and others, NON GT)
• Under-timed engine that may feel lazy when power is needed
• Poor startup strategy that can cause stalling, high idle and popping

**All riding modes still work as designed and all will have the throttle improvements that we have implemented. Dynamic mode will still be what you want to use for maximum performance and power.**
